Troubleshooting
If you run into more issues while adding or updating a payment method to your Roku account, try the following:
- Make sure you entered card numbers correctly
- Try a different card or PayPal account
- Make sure your card has not expired or needs to be updated
- Try a different web browser such as Chrome, Safari, or Firefox
- To add Apple Pay, only use Safari (Apple Pay is currently not supported on other browsers)
- Confirm your Roku device is connected to the internet by going to Settings > Network > Check connection
Message on your Roku device asking you to update your payment information
If you see a message that says, 'Your payment information needs to be updated before you can complete the process,' it means that Roku is unable to process or charge the payment method in your Roku account. This could be because your card has expired, information is incorrect, you've reached your credit limit, or other reasons. To resolve the issue, you need to update your payment method in your Roku account
